"I was inside the ring and I saw many, many times on video - the fight, and there is only one clear answer. I prepared the punch, half uppercut/half hook. I prepared this punch and I feel that I hit him pretty hard. Solis was knocked out, what happened after that, where he breaks his ligaments or his knee - it's his problem. I'm sorry the fight was so short. The next fight, I promise not to hit my opponent for the first three rounds, and then I'll knock him out. With Solis there are no excuses, this was a knockout punch"

How is it that Klitschko fans can possibly call the end result of that fight a "knockout" and at the same time offer up endless b!tching and moaning and excuses about what transpired in the Lewis fight? How does tearing a ligament in your knee have anything to do with punches? Surely if Solis is healthy, he deserves an immediate rematch after Vitali is done with Adamek, wouldn't you say?

hey retarded fu.ckwit because if you watched the interview with vitali you'd see that Vitali says he KNOCKED solis out and THAT's what caused the injury because Solis got knocked out and fell thus breaking his knee. Damn some of you retards are illiterate and have fetal alcohol syndrome or something

If you actually watched the fight (****a interview) you would see that Solis's injury had NOTHING to do with any punch that Vitali threw, unlike the Lewis fight, it was an erroneous KO ruling.

If you're going to cry about Lewis not giving Vitali a rematch after his legitimate TKO victory. How can you possibly not be in favor of Solis getting a rightly deserved rematch based on an illegitimate ruling?

A rotator cuff injury is career threatening and a lot worse than breaking hands (or even a leg honestly).

The same can be said about getting 2 large gaping holes punched in the side of your face

I can't think of many modern day fighters that would keep fighting like that, especially not someone with so much at stake. Can you?

Floyd Mayweather won a lineal championship while fighting an entire match with the same injury that Vitali had when he beat Castillo. What do you think boxing fans would be saying about Floyd if he had've pulled a *****move like Vitali and quit during that fight? Hell, some people still give him ***** for not winning that fight decisive enough even though he was injured, could you imagine if he had've quit? Why does Vitali get a pass from boxing fans for quitting when nobody else would?

Cuts are not an indication of skill or great punches. It's mostly fluke.

There's nothing "fluke" about using your fists to injure your opponent so horribly, that they can no longer continue on in the fight, THAT'S BOXING.
